It mentions Briles. I therefore mentioned him in my response, and pointed out an obvious fact about the facilities and brand he left. Regardless of what one thinks about him (yes, he's gone and isn't coming back - thanks for that Captain Obvious), it is indisputable that his success propelled us forward, despite some very bad things that happened under his tenure.Norman Dale said:once again you have to mention Briles and even credit him for the recruiting class. BRILES IS GONE! you really need to let it go, and clearly have not yet.Mothra said:One would hope so, given the facilities and resources now present, as well as the brand that did not exist when Briles took over.jbbear said:Briles first few years? You are absolutely clueless. The 2018 class will be on par with any Briles class and miles ahead of his first few classes. The 247 Avg. rating right now is .8624. If we add most of the prospects currently projected, that avg. will go up. BTW, the highest Avg. rating for Briles was .8548 in 2012. Years 1 and 2 were .8131 and .8287.Chanceux said:
Not too bad on paper with all things considered. Bout on par with what Briles did his first few years. Course Briles didn't have a shiny new stadium to cruit to.
Rhule may fail miserably, but the CABers who still cannot move on are like nails on a chalk board. some wont be happy even if Rhule wins games. "but it wasnt back to back big 12 titles" (when we laid embarrassing eggs in bowl games, after beating cream puffs in non-conf, when the league was down....btw)
Briles is gone....it's like the ex that you wont let go
[insert frozen gif]
and you really want to talk about the BAYLOR UNIVERSITY brand post-Briles? maybe teenage recruits still just see the cool stuff - but the Baylor brand as a whole...not in a good place if you were not aware
I don't know why some of you guys are so sensitive about the very mention of his name. It's as if you've forgotten that some good things happened under his tenure. It wasn't all bad, even if he was rightly fired. You guys treat him as the person who shall not be named. It's as if he's Lord Voldemort.
Relax buddy. Take a breath, It's going to be ok if I mention his name.
Huh?
